I purchased a home 8 months ago before learning about bigger pockets, this home was going into foreclosure for back taxes . The owner at the time approached me and offer that I put it under my name and take over the payments, so I just thought about it and figured I could fix it up and rent it or refinance it to purchase other rentals. Well. So I did it luckily it was a owner to owner deal so the owner agreed and it is now mine, well I owe 48,000 And the home remolded is worth 105000 And I'm stuck because I need about 15,000 grand to get it looking good any suggestions I don't have good credit so the banks won't loan me anything . Any one interested in a investment.?

I'm curious how 15k to make needed repairs is unattainable but converting the property into a duplex is a potential solution.
